Gross margin improved to 15.2% from 14.4% a year earlier and 12.8% last quarter, helped by higher-margin AI services. Operating profit reached RMB23.0 million, the first GAAP operating profit, versus large operating losses in prior periods, while non-GAAP operating profit rose to RMB124.0 million with a 4.0% margin.

Net loss narrowed sharply to RMB93.0 million, a 79.6% year-over-year reduction, and non-GAAP EBITDA increased to RMB1,100.5 million, a 35.8% margin. The company invested heavily in AI infrastructure, with RMB3.3 billion in second-quarter capital expenditures, and ended June 30, 2026 with RMB4,674.3 million in cash and cash equivalents.

Filing Explained

As of June 30, operating cash generation was below investing use, alongside a substantially larger equipment base and higher total liabilities.

Form 6-K is a foreign private issuer’s interim report for material information published in its home market. The company reports unaudited results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026; beyond the operating results already summarized, its balance sheet shows a larger equipment base, with property and equipment, net, at RMB 13,725,293 thousand versus RMB 10,094,870 thousand at December 31, 2025.

For the quarter, net cash generated from operating activities was RMB 2,850,866 thousand, while net cash used in investing activities was RMB 2,912,812 thousand. The disclosed cash flow therefore shows operating cash generation below investing use during the period.

At June 30, 2026, total liabilities were RMB 21,808,858 thousand, up from RMB 17,416,155 thousand at December 31, 2025, while total equity was RMB 8,894,712 thousand, down from RMB 9,313,034 thousand. These balance-sheet changes accompany the infrastructure expansion but do not by themselves establish a new share issuance.

The filing defines non-GAAP operating profit as GAAP operating profit excluding share-based compensation and intangible-asset amortization, and defines non-GAAP EBITDA by additionally excluding interest, taxes, and depreciation and amortization; these measures are supplemental rather than U.S. GAAP results.

Total revenue Q2 2026 RMB3,071,966 thousand Quarter ended June 30, 2026; up 30.8% year-over-year
Public cloud revenue Q2 2026 RMB2,357,617 thousand Quarter ended June 30, 2026; up 45.1% year-over-year
AI cloud gross billings Q2 2026 RMB1,327,000 thousand Quarter ended June 30, 2026; 56% of public cloud revenue
Gross margin Q2 2026 15.2% Quarter ended June 30, 2026; 14.4% a year earlier
Operating profit Q2 2026 RMB22,999 thousand Quarter ended June 30, 2026; versus operating loss RMB326,987 thousand in Q2 2025
Net loss Q2 2026 RMB92,977 thousand Quarter ended June 30, 2026; narrowed from RMB456,863 thousand in Q2 2025
Non-GAAP EBITDA Q2 2026 RMB1,100,454 thousand Quarter ended June 30, 2026; margin 35.8%
Cash and cash equivalents RMB4,674,330 thousand As of June 30, 2026; down from RMB6,018,043 thousand at December 31, 2025
Non-GAAP EBITDA financial
"Non-GAAP EBITDA7 was RMB1,100.5 million (US$162.2 million)"
Non-GAAP EBITDA is a company's earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization that management adjusts by adding back or removing certain items that official accounting rules (GAAP) would normally include. Investors look at it to get a cleaner view of recurring operating performance—like checking a score after removing one-off events—but because companies decide which items to exclude, it can vary widely and should be evaluated alongside standard GAAP measures.
gross margin financial
"Gross margin was 15.2% in this quarter, compared with 14.4%"
Gross margin is the difference between how much money a company makes from selling its products and how much it costs to produce them, expressed as a percentage of sales. It shows how efficiently a company is turning sales into profit before other expenses like marketing or salaries. Higher gross margin means the company keeps more money from each sale, which is a good sign of financial health.
Model-as-a-Service (MaaS) technical
"driven by incremental contributions from our AI cloud infrastructure services as well as Model-as-a-Service (MaaS)"
Model-as-a-service (MaaS) is a cloud-based offering that lets businesses rent ready-made artificial intelligence or machine learning models through an online interface instead of building them in-house. Investors care because it can create steady subscription revenue, fast customer scaling, and lower customer setup costs—like renting a specialized tool rather than buying and maintaining it—but it also brings dependence on data quality, model updates, and regulatory or competitive risks.
share-based compensation financial
"The decrease was mainly due to the decrease of share-based compensation and personnel costs"
Share-based compensation is when a company pays employees, executives or directors with its own stock or rights to buy stock instead of, or in addition to, cash. Think of it like receiving store gift cards instead of extra paycheck — it can motivate staff to boost the company’s value, but it also increases the number of shares outstanding and can shrink each existing owner’s slice of profits and voting power. Investors watch it because it affects reported earnings, share count and the alignment between management and shareholders.
operating lease right-of-use assets financial
"Operating lease right-of-use assets | | | 98,405 | | | | 189,754"
An operating lease right-of-use (ROU) asset is an accounting entry that shows the value of a leased item you have the legal right to use—like a building, vehicle, or equipment—recorded on a company’s balance sheet along with the corresponding lease obligation. Investors care because it adds to reported assets and liabilities, changing measures like leverage and return on assets much like bringing a long-term rental onto the company’s financial snapshot, which can affect credit terms and valuation.

Profitability-wise, we recorded positive operating margin (GAAP) for the first time, and our adjusted operating profit margin increased significantly to reach 4.0%1, thanks to our improved gross margin and operating efficiency. We remain committed to pursuing high-quality, sustainable growth strategy, deepening collaboration with customers both within and beyond our ecosystem, and strengthening our market position.”

We also reached breakeven on operating profit (GAAP), with adjusted operating profit margin reaching 4.0%, demonstrating improving profitability thanks to AI demand tailwinds and operational optimization. We remain committed to investing for sustainable long-term growth, with capital expenditures (including capitalized assets through leasing arrangements) amounting to RMB3.3 billion in Q2, an increase from Q1.”

Cost of revenues was RMB2,605.8 million (US$384.0 million), representing an increase of 29.6% from RMB2,010.4 million in the same quarter of 2025, which was mainly due to our continued investment in AI computing resources.

Depreciation and amortization costs increased from RMB552.0 million in the same quarter of 2025 to RMB963.8 million (US$142.0 million) this quarter. The increase was mainly due to the depreciation of newly acquired and leased servers, and network equipment which were mainly related to AI cloud business. Solution development and services costs increased by 3.9% year-over-year from RMB563.7 million in the same quarter of 2025 to RMB585.7 million (US$86.3 million) this quarter.

Gross profit was RMB466.2 million (US$68.7 million), representing an increase of 37.6% from RMB338.9 million in the same quarter of 2025.

The year-over-year improvement was mainly due to the increase of revenue, while the sequential improvement was mainly due to the impact of increase in gross profit.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial information is prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). In evaluating our business, we consider and use certain non-GAAP measures, Non-GAAP gross profit, Non-GAAP gross margin, Non-GAAP operating (loss) profit, Non-GAAP operating (loss) profit margin, Non-GAAP EBITDA, Non-GAAP EBITDA margin, Non-GAAP net loss and Non-GAAP net loss margin, as supplemental measures to review and assess our operating performance. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We define Non-GAAP gross profit as gross profit excluding share-based compensation expenses allocated in the cost of revenues, and we define Non-GAAP gross margin as Non-GAAP gross profit as a percentage of revenues. We define Non-GAAP operating (loss) profit as operating (loss) profit excluding share-based compensation expenses and amortization of intangible assets and we define Non-GAAP operating (loss) profit margin as Non-GAAP operating (loss) profit as a percentage of revenues. We define Non-GAAP net loss as net loss excluding share-based compensation expenses and foreign exchange loss (gain), and we define Non-GAAP net loss margin as Non-GAAP net loss as a percentage of revenues. We define Non-GAAP EBITDA as Non-GAAP net loss excluding interest income, interest expense, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization, and we define Non-GAAP EBITDA margin as Non-GAAP EBITDA as a percentage of revenues. We present these non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by our management to evaluate our operating performance and formulate business plans. We also believe that the use of these non-GAAP measures facilitates investors’ assessment of our operating performance.

 

 

6 Non-GAAP net loss is defined as net loss excluding share-based compensation expenses and foreign exchange loss (gain), and we define Non-GAAP net loss margin as Non-GAAP net loss as a percentage of revenues. See “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” set forth at the end of this press release.

7 Non-GAAP EBITDA is defined as Non-GAAP net loss excluding interest income, interest expense, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization, and we define Non-GAAP EBITDA margin as Non-GAAP EBITDA as a percentage of revenues. See “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” set forth at the end of this press release.

 

 

 

 

These non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools. One of the key limitations of using these non-GAAP financial measures is that they do not reflect all items of income and expense that affect our operations. Further, these non-GAAP measures may differ from the non-GAAP information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited.

 

We compensate for these limitations by reconciling these non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest U.S. GAAP performance measure, all of which should be considered when evaluating our performance. We encourage you to review our financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.
